I'm going to do my best to stick with turkey and greens plus I'm making mashed cauliflower. I need to check the carb content of gravy. I know I'm going to be disappointed! I might see if I can find a low carb recipe.
Wow! That's awesome! So how many carbs per day? I'm doing 30g carbs - 100g Protein and healthy fat too. Doc said I'm not doing Atkins so I don't get to eat a bunch of unhealthy saturated fat.
My husband and sister knew from the beginning. After surgery was scheduled, I told my son and mom. Since then I've shared only with people I know aren't going to judge me. If I get skied about how I'm losing weight, I'll tell the truth but I'm not advertising. The exception are my clients. I need to tell them I'm having surgery but I'm not specifying. In fact I need to come up with a fake surgery!
Yes, it's for liver shrinking. My doc stressed the importance of shrinking my liver. If it's too big, he'll just close me up without the procedure, so I'm being pretty strict. Not happy about the scare tactic but I guess it's working.
December 1st.
Only 10 days away! Now to make it through Thanksgiving without blowing my pre-op diet. I'm feeling pretty motivated so, as of now, it should be no problem!
